As important as your roof is, you can’t forget about your siding. When it comes to protecting your home from the elements, keeping your siding in good condition is crucial. However, replacing and repairing wood siding is expensive and time-consuming. If your wood siding is looking a little worse for wear, it may be time to replace it with vinyl siding. Our team at Aspen Roofing is ready to help you maintain the exterior of your home with roof repair, siding installation, and much more.
Is vinyl siding installation the right move to protect your home? Here are three reasons to replace your wood siding with vinyl.
Low Maintenance
Keeping the appearance of wood siding can be labor-intensive, especially if your house gets too much or not enough sun. Prolonged exposure to intense sunlight will cause the paint on your siding to fade and peel. On the other hand, if your property has too much shade, your siding will not dry out adequately after wet weather, causing the wood to decay. Repainting or replacing sections of siding feels like a never-ending process, but caring for vinyl siding is much simpler. Vinyl doesn’t rot, and you don’t have to paint it.
Durability
One reason vinyl siding is low-maintenance is its durability. It is resistant to pests and decay and holds up in extreme temperatures. In New England, you need to use materials that can withstand winter weather, especially ice and snow. Even if the vinyl cracks or suffers other damage, replacing the damaged section is quick and easy.
Budget Friendly
Although there are several alternatives to wood siding, vinyl remains a popular choice because of its relatively low cost. Compared to engineered wood or fiber cement siding, vinyl is the least expensive choice to replace wood siding. Vinyl siding installation is also a straightforward process, bringing labor costs down significantly. The siding is manufactured in panels, so installers do not have to attach each individual piece. After they measure and cut the sections they need, installers can have your new siding up in just a few hours.
